For generations, vampires from around the world have hidden in plain sight among society's nightly workforce. After a violent attack, an immortal bartender is pulled into an investigation across the city he lives in.

Eight years after the disappearance and presumed death of a local boy, a shaken man under police interrogation claims the killer in a brutal gang assault was none other than the missing child himself who is now a violent, ghost-like figure roaming the streets. As the story unfolds through fractured memories and flashbacks, the night of the attack reveals a savage vigilante who spares the witness but leaves behind a trail of blood. With the case reopening and the truth buried in trauma, the survivor must confront whether he encountered a monster, a miracle, or the echo of a boy who never truly died.
